One day after his latest poll asking his followers on X whether the USA needs a new political party, Elon Musk announced on Saturday that the “America party has formed.”
“By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it!” Musk wrote.
“Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom.”

When it comes to bankrupting our country with waste & graft, we live in a one-party system, not a democracy.
Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom. https://t.co/9K8AD04QQN
The announcement comes after 1,248,856 people voted ‘yes’ to whether he should “create the America Party.”
Independence Day is the perfect time to ask if you want independence from the two-party (some would say uniparty) system!

Should we create the America Party?
The announcement comes one day after President Donald Trump signed his signature tax and spending bill, which Musk has vehemently opposed for weeks, and which resulted in a very public falling out with Trump – whose campaign Musk spent hundreds of millions of dollars promoting.
Musk also led the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which found billions of dollars in waste, fraud and abuse – virtually none of which was included in Trump’s so-called “Big Beautiful Bill.”
While the Trump-Musk spat has simmered in recent weeks, Trump earlier this week threatened to cut off billions of dollars in subsidies to Musk’s companies.
Meanwhile, Musk foe Steve Bannon tore into the plan for a third political party – saying on his “War Room” podcast on Friday: “The foul, the buffoon. Elmo the Mook, formerly known as Elon Musk, Elmo the Mook. He’s today, in another smear, and this — only a foreigner could do this — think about it, he’s got up on, he’s got up on Twitter right now, a poll about starting an America Party, a non-American starting an America Party.”
“No, brother, you’re not an American. You’re a South African and if we take enough time and prove the facts of that, you should be deported because it’s a crime of what you did — among many,” Bannon added.
BANNON: Elmo the Mook (formerly Elon Musk) is at it again today.

The gall for him, as a foreigner, to run a Twitter poll about starting an American political party.
Newsflash: You’re not American. You’re a South African billionaire meddling in our politics. pic.twitter.com/eD6FT9AFuG
Musk, meanwhile, wrote on Friday that “The fat, drunken slob called Bannon will go back to prison and this time for a long time. He has a lifetime of crime to pay for.”

He’ll just end up splitting the Republican vote (if he’s popular), while the Democrats move up the middle.
Who writes this crap?
Musk who is a literal satanist like his mother sets up a party for people who pertain to be christians….lol. This is a clown show. blackrock fund his businesses and when he did go against them, he was made go to auchwitz to look at the propaganda for his penance. Thats all the jusa needs, another jew controlled party to divide the vote even more. This is nothing more that trying to get people to sit and wait instead of taking credible action.
Much of his money is tied up in China so it’s more like “One World Party”.
